/*
 * Bootloader Messaging Interface (BMI)
 *
 * BMI is a very simple messaging interface used during initialization
 * to read memory, write memory, execute code, and to define an
 * application entry PC.
 *
 * It is used to download an application to AR6000, to provide
 * patches to code that is already resident on AR6000, and generally
 * to examine and modify state.  The Host has an opportunity to use
 * BMI only once during bootup.  Once the Host issues a BMI_DONE
 * command, this opportunity ends.
 *
 * The Host writes BMI requests to mailbox0, and reads BMI responses
 * from mailbox0.   BMI requests all begin with a command
 * (see below for specific commands), and are followed by
 * command-specific data.
 *
 * Flow control:
 * The Host can only issue a command once the Target gives it a
 * "BMI Command Credit", using AR6000 Counter #4.  As soon as the
 * Target has completed a command, it issues another BMI Command
 * Credit (so the Host can issue the next command).
 *
 * BMI handles all required Target-side cache flushing.
